“Stronger prices for grains and oilseeds played a major role in boosting crop receipts,” StatsCan said. But the statistical agency cautioned that income “can vary widely from farm to farm,” depending on the particular crop, weather patterns and other factors.

Canada saw a bumper crop of grains this year, including including wheat, barley and canola, the CBC reports, noting that the rest of the world has also seen increases in grain production, which means prices could be weaker going forward.

StatsCan’s data suggests demand for construction workers isn’t slowing. In some parts of Western Canada, shortages of construction workers are pushing employers to look outside the country for workers.
